The Primeval Warrior is a cosmetic item for all classes awarded by Valve to the Team Fortress 2 community as part of their 119th Update Celebration. It is a platinum, rectangular medal worn on the player's chest with an emblem related to the class wearing it. The Primeval Warrior was awarded to those who first played Team Fortress 2 from 00:00 September 17, 2007 (UTC) to 23:59 October 9, 2007 (UTC), the pre-game release beta-testing phase.

Update history

May 5, 2010 Patch

  • The Primeval Warrior was added to the game.
  • Grizzled Veteran badges from before October 10th, 2007 were changed to Primeval Warrior badges.

May 7, 2010 Patch

  • Badge hire dates now display the time in GMT.

September 30, 2010 Patch (Mann-Conomy Update)

  • [Undocumented] Added a community-contributed description for this miscellaneous item.

November 19, 2010 Patch

Notes

  • The item description was written by NB820 for the Hat Describing Contest.
  • Originally, players who participated in the beta did not get any medal when the medals went live, due to Valve forgetting to factor the pre-release beta into their distribution algorithm, although this was quickly corrected and these players got the Grizzled Veteran. When the Primeval Warrior was added, in the May 5, 2010 Patch, the original medals of those eligible were changed to reflect this.
  • The date on Robin Walker's Primeval Warrior is dated August 23, 1998.[1] This is the 2nd birthday of the original Team Fortress mod for Quake, and not Robin's hire date as previously speculated. The date is shown as 1 day prior to the correct birthday due to GMT to CDT conversion. Interestingly enough, while this is not Robin's date of hire at Valve, it is one day short of 2 years from it.
